One Year After Jorge Lanata’s Death, Estate Fight Deepens Under Court Audit

A court‑approved audit now aims to clarify a complex estate with unresolved creditor claims.

Overview

  • The external audit to inventory assets and debts, requested to restore trust between parties, was accepted by the court in October 2025 and is moving forward to inform the succession.
  • The legal battle centers on widow Elba Marcovecchio and daughters Bárbara and Lola, who lodged a criminal complaint alleging theft and embezzlement of valuables from Lanata’s apartment.
  • Radio Mitre is seeking $300,000 as the remaining balance of a loan to Lanata, and responsibility for repayment has yet to be determined.
  • The estate spans a multimillion‑dollar art collection, luxury watches and pens, financial assets, and properties in Buenos Aires—including a unit in the Palacio Estrugamou—and Punta del Este, with ownership and allocation under judicial review.
  • Marking the anniversary, Bárbara shared a cryptic post referencing the series Succession and Marcovecchio posted a personal tribute, reflecting the dispute’s continued public profile.
